Stock-and-flow models are a computational method from the field of system dynamics. They represent how systems change over time and are mathematically equivalent to ordinary differential equations. sdbuildR (system dynamics builder) provides an intuitive interface for constructing stock-and-flow models without requiring extensive domain knowledge. Models can quickly be simulated and revised, supporting iterative development. sdbuildR simulates models in R and Julia', and supports computationally intensive ensemble simulations. Additionally, sdbuildR can import models created in Insight Maker (<https://insightmaker.com/>).

Fits semiparametric linear and multilevel models with non-parametric additive Bayesian additive regression tree (BART; Chipman, George, and McCulloch (2010) <doi:10.1214/09-AOAS285>) components and Stan (Stan Development Team (2021) <https://mc-stan.org/>) sampled parametric ones. Multilevel models can be expressed using lme4 syntax (Bates, Maechler, Bolker, and Walker (2015) <doi:10.18637/jss.v067.i01>).

This package provides an implementation of simplicial complexes for Topological Data Analysis (TDA). The package includes functions to compute faces, boundary operators, Betti numbers, Euler characteristic, and to construct simplicial complexes, including Vietoris-Rips, Cech, Alpha, Delaunay, Witness, flood, and (via a Freudenthal triangulation) cubical complexes for grid and image data. It also implements persistent homology, from building filtrations (via a single build_filtration() entry point covering all of the above) to computing persistence diagrams, persistence landscapes, and Wasserstein/bottleneck distances between diagrams, with the aim of helping readers understand the core concepts of computational topology. Methods are based on standard references in persistent homology such as Zomorodian and Carlsson (2005) <doi:10.1007/s00454-004-1146-y>, Chazal and Michel (2021) <doi:10.3389/frai.2021.667963>, and Otter, Porter, Tillmann, Grindrod and Harrington (2017) <doi:10.1140/epjds/s13688-017-0109-5>.

This package provides comprehensive tools for the implementation of Structural Latent Class Models (SLCM), including Latent Transition Analysis (LTA; Linda M. Collins and Stephanie T. Lanza, 2009) <doi:10.1002/9780470567333>, Latent Class Profile Analysis (LCPA; Hwan Chung et al., 2010) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-985x.2010.00674.x>, and Joint Latent Class Analysis (JLCA; Saebom Jeon et al., 2017) <doi:10.1080/10705511.2017.1340844>, and any other extended models involving multiple latent class variables. Details on the methodology and implementation are given in Kim and Chung (2026) <doi:10.18637/jss.v117.i08>.

This package provides a simple progress bar to use for basic and advanced users that suits all those who prefer procedural programming. It is especially useful for integration into markdown files thanks to the progress bar's customisable appearance.

Cleans and formats language transcripts guided by a series of transformation options (e.g., lemmatize words, omit stopwords, split strings across rows). SemanticDistance computes two distinct metrics of cosine semantic distance (experiential and embedding). These values reflect pairwise cosine distance between different elements or chunks of a language sample. SemanticDistance can process monologues (e.g., stories, ordered text), dialogues (e.g., conversation transcripts), word pairs arrayed in columns, and unordered word lists. Users specify options for how they wish to chunk distance calculations. These options include: rolling ngram-to-word distance (window of n-words to each new word), ngram-to-ngram distance (2-word chunk to the next 2-word chunk), pairwise distance between words arrayed in columns, matrix comparisons (i.e., all possible pairwise distances between words in an unordered list), turn-by-turn distance (talker to talker in a dialogue transcript). SemanticDistance includes visualization options for analyzing distances as time series data and simple semantic network dynamics (e.g., clustering, undirected graph network).

This package provides a way to call the functions in SUNDIALS C ODE solving library (<https://computing.llnl.gov/projects/sundials>). Currently the serial version of ODE solver, CVODE', sensitivity calculator CVODES and differential algebraic solver IDA from the SUNDIALS library are implemented. The package requires ODE to be written as an R or Rcpp function and does not require the SUNDIALS library to be installed on the local machine.

An implementation of split-population duration regression models. Unlike regular duration models, split-population duration models are mixture models that accommodate the presence of a sub-population that is not at risk for failure, e.g. cancer patients who have been cured by treatment. This package implements Weibull and Loglogistic forms for the duration component, and focuses on data with time-varying covariates. These models were originally formulated in Boag (1949) and Berkson and Gage (1952), and extended in Schmidt and Witte (1989).

This is an implementation of the algorithm described in Section 3 of Hosszejni and Frühwirth-Schnatter (2026) <doi:10.1016/j.jmva.2025.105536>. The algorithm is used to verify that the counting rule CR(r,1) holds for the sparsity pattern of the transpose of a factor loading matrix. As detailed in Section 2 of the same paper, if CR(r,1) holds, then the idiosyncratic variances are generically identified. If CR(r,1) does not hold, then we do not know whether the idiosyncratic variances are identified or not.

This package provides peak functions, which enable us to detect peaks in time series. The methods implemented in this package are based on Girish Keshav Palshikar (2009) <https://www.researchgate.net/publication/228853276_Simple_Algorithms_for_Peak_Detection_in_Time-Series>.

This package provides a spatial population can be generated based on spatially varying regression model under the assumption that observations are collected from a uniform two-dimensional grid consist of (m * m) lattice points with unit distance between any two neighbouring points. For method details see Chao, Liu., Chuanhua, Wei. and Yunan, Su. (2018).<DOI:10.1080/10485252.2018.1499907>. This spatially generated data can be used to test different issues related to the statistical analysis of spatial data. This generated spatial data can be utilized in geographically weighted regression analysis for studying the spatially varying relationships among the variables.

An efficient tool for fitting the nested common and shared atoms models using variational Bayes approximate inference for fast computation. Specifically, the package implements the common atoms model (Denti et al., 2023), its finite version (D'Angelo et al., 2023), and a hybrid finite-infinite model. All models use Gaussian mixtures with a normal-inverse-gamma prior distribution on the parameters. Additional functions are provided to help analyze the results of the fitting procedure.

An efficient implementation of Scalable Bayesian Rule Lists Algorithm, a competitor algorithm for decision tree algorithms; see Hongyu Yang, Cynthia Rudin, Margo Seltzer (2017) <https://proceedings.mlr.press/v70/yang17h.html>. It builds from pre-mined association rules and have a logical structure identical to a decision list or one-sided decision tree. Fully optimized over rule lists, this algorithm strikes practical balance between accuracy, interpretability, and computational speed.

This package implements an approach aimed at assessing the accuracy and effectiveness of raw scores obtained in scales that contain locally dependent items. The program uses as input the calibration (structural) item estimates obtained from fitting extended unidimensional factor-analytic solutions in which the existing local dependencies are included. Measures of reliability (Omega) and information are proposed at three levels: (a) total score, (b) bivariate-doublet, and (c) item-by-item deletion, and are compared to those that would be obtained if all the items had been locally independent. All the implemented procedures can be obtained from: (a) linear factor-analytic solutions in which the item scores are treated as approximately continuous, and (b) non-linear solutions in which the item scores are treated as ordered-categorical. A detailed guide can be obtained at the following url.

This package provides random number generation, estimation, and hypothesis testing for two-stage life-testing experiments in which units begin on a baseline stress and, at a fixed or random change point, some or all surviving units move to an elevated stress ("stage life testing"), following the cumulative-exposure model of Laumen and Cramer (2019), "Stage life testing", <doi:10.1002/nav.21874>. Twelve baseline lifetime distributions are supplied (Weibull, Power Lindley, Exponentiated Lindley, Exponentiated Exponential, Marshall-Olkin Exponential, Lomax, Exponentiated Teissier, Log-Logistic, Chen, Log-normal, Gamma, and Power Muth/Power Teissier) together with three parameter-sharing cases (common, shape1, shape11). The package implements data simulation under both the fixed-proportion (typeP) and fixed-count (typeM) rules and the simple-step-stress special case, maximum likelihood estimation using a hybrid Nelder-Mead and BFGS optimisation routine, asymptotic (Wald) and non-parametric/parametric bootstrap confidence intervals (including log-scale variants that guarantee a positive interval), a stage-1-observation planning probability, Kolmogorov-Smirnov goodness-of-fit testing with a parametric-bootstrap correction for estimated parameters, likelihood-ratio and information criteria for nested/non-nested model comparison, and diagnostic plots comparing fitted and empirical distributions, including the cumulative distribution function (CDF), survival function, probability-probability (P-P), and quantile-quantile (Q-Q) plots.

The functions allow for the numerical evaluation of some commonly used entropy measures, such as Shannon entropy, Rényi entropy, Havrda and Charvat entropy, and Arimoto entropy, at selected parametric values from several well-known and widely used probability distributions. Moreover, the functions also compute the relative loss of these entropies using the truncated distributions. Related works include: Awad, A. M., & Alawneh, A. J. (1987).
